that rear fender flare needs a bit of reshaping, but nice project.

thanks.. yeah I took the pics my self by the way (not the rolling shots).. then again an image is one thing and seeing the car in person is another, for some apparent reason I find this car NOT photogenic at all compared to my other cars... it was kind of hard trying to find the right angle of the car, but besides that its more appreciated up close and person...

awesome work for a show car

I would've just do a semi wide look tho. someone did it on his C32. just a little bit on the front fender and extend the rear about an inch. a subtle increase.

for a unique look.

Too bad she has to be subjected to the streets of NY.

What's up with the FL plates?

I have been looking high and low for a widebody kit for the W203. I like the idea of a semi-wide as Frank mentioned as well.
Agree with the others though, something is off in the rear. Not sure if its rolled too much or if the rims are just funky. Either way it's still a sick ride.

Check the tire pressure and camber. There is no way you should have less traction with a monster 315 on the back of that sucker!

Not to mention that since its an out of state plate you don't have NY cops harass you about not having a front bumper plate.

Don't do it. Leave it like it is. It looks really nice the way it is now.

like silverbullet said. 315 is hard to heat up. you're gonna see some mpg drop with those tires setup tho. lol

I would pass on the front europlate even tho I've done it before and even got a thumbsup from a local sheriff. bi-xenon would complete the front
